A couple a things

Really am enjoying some spectacularly lovely weather these past 3 days - despite the grey and clouds throughout the Memorial Day week-end. At least it didn't rain (much) and the usual festivities reigned. I am pleased to report that the quilt that Michele and I made raised $225. I was feeling satisfied with that. Overall the auction raised $3300 - good huh?

I did, unfortunately, find a really miserable cold while away, so have been blowing and coughing A LOT! Been working on a couple of projects to show you,

Each month the little house changes with the seasons. Very cute and when all 12 are done, it will be very cute. I do love the Vliesofix (sp?) as the backing. Thanks Caro.

Also been trying out a pattern from Missouri Star Quilt Company. Like it! And Caro like many good American patterns it is: sew, cut, sew again, cut again and sew again.

Using some nice dark blue fabrics from Agnes, in the Netherlands. It makes me happy. Soon it will be summer.
